SCHOOL PROGRAMS

Welcome to the class room without walls! We provide the opportunity for students to develop confidence and leadership skills through curriculum-based activities that focus on team-building and environmental awareness. Our facilities provide students with a more hands on learning experience than exists in a typical classroom setting.

CORPORATE PROGRAMS

Ever considered going camping with your company? Glen Bernard Camp is an excellent venue for a corporate function, in a not-so typical location. Let us custom design a corporate team building program to meet your needs! Our facilities can accommodate 150+ people in overnight accommodations, many with heat and electricity.

Welcome to the classroom without walls!

Our exceptional staff lead and facilitate lessons covering Geography, Science, Physical Education, Earth and Space Science, and Environmental Sciences units for grades 5-12. We take pride in the many sustainable features we have to offer, including our composting toilets, solar-powered buildings, green rooftop garden, and solar hot water systems.

In addition to curriculum based options, we also offer countless other outdoor activities that foster independence and self-confidence, as well as strong team building skills and an opportunity for teachers to gain insight into how to maximize their student’s potential.

Program Options

The sample program outlines a typical four day trip to GBC: camp activities, outdoor skills, leadership development and team-building. We are happy to design programs for older students in which Glen Bernard staff involvement varies; you specify the parameters from full supervision to supported student leadership.

Glen Bernard is listed as a private school on the Ontario Ministry of Education website with the authority to grant high school credits. Academic enrichment activities are available in several subject areas and grade levels. Together, we can co-develop curriculum extensions that are unique to your school.
